## Why social-media-research-skill?

- **Real data** — Pulls live discussions from Reddit and X, not cached or training data
- **Real opinions** — Every insight is backed by actual quotes from real people
- **Up to date** — Analyzes today's conversations, not last year's
- **Structured output** — Results come as typed JSON + interactive dashboards, ready for your agent to use
- **Works with your AI assistant** — Installs as a skill for Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and more

---

## 🚀 Quick Start

### 1. Install

Install the CLI globally via npm:

```bash
npm install -g sc-research
```

Requires **Node.js >= 20**.

### 2. Configure API keys

Create a `.sc-research` file in your project root:

```env
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...    # Required for Reddit data
XAI_API_KEY=xai-...      # Required for X (Twitter) data
```

You need at least one key. The tool will gracefully skip any pipeline whose key is missing.

### 3. Set up your AI assistant

Run the init command to install social-media-research-skill into your AI assistant's workspace:

```bash
# For Claude Code
sc-research init --ai claude

# For Cursor
sc-research init --ai cursor

# For Windsurf
sc-research init --ai windsurf

# For Antigravity
sc-research init --ai antigravity

# Or set up multiple at once
sc-research init --ai claude,cursor

# Or all supported platforms
sc-research init --ai all
```

Supported platforms: `claude` · `cursor` · `windsurf` · `antigravity` · `all`

### 4. Start asking questions

That's it — you're ready. Just ask your AI assistant questions in **natural language**, like you normally would:

- _"What do people think about the Sony WH-1000XM6?"_
- _"What's trending in the gaming community this week?"_
- _"Is it worth upgrading to the new MacBook Air M4?"_
- _"What are the best budget IEMs under $50?"_

Your AI assistant will automatically use social-media-research-skill to fetch live discussions from Reddit and X, analyze them, and give you a structured answer backed by real data.

### 5. Visualize results

For deeper analysis, your agent generates structured JSON files. You can view them in an interactive dashboard:

```bash
sc-research visualize
```

This opens a local dashboard in your browser with charts, sentiment breakdowns, ranked lists, trend timelines, and direct quotes from real discussions.

### Using the CLI directly

You can also use the CLI directly without going through your AI assistant:

```bash
# Quick research
sc-research research "best budget IEMs under $50"

# Deep dive — pulls more data for a thorough analysis
sc-research research:deep "best budget IEMs under $50"
```
